What is it like for a mother to try to help her daughter, who has become addicted to pain-relieving drugs following a series of devastating operations, recover from her addiction? That is the story this book tells in a slightly novelized treatment of an altogether true story. While occurring a half-century ago, it portrays, in a vividly moving, cinema-like narrative, the challenge thousands of parents face today. Sobering--in some ways terrifying--Irma O'Conor's story is, at the same time, filled with hope, courage and love.
